Add your comments to the September 2026 Assessment of Forestry Management by FLS
There are occasions when it is acceptable to exclude or ‘excise’ specific areas from the scope of an evaluation without the necessary loss of FSC certification for the remaining area. Please see attached proposed excisions summary document. The proposed excisions will be evaluated against the requirements of the FSC Policy on Excision which can be found in the FSC document centre: https://fsc.org/en/document-centre
The Soil Association would welcome any comments you have on;
- forest management carried out by Forestry and Land Scotland and/or sites and/or
- the Standards being used (you can view this at http://ukwas.org.uk/ )
For more information about the stakeholder consultation process or to leave a response, please go to our webpage: www.soilassociation.org/stakeholderconsultation/
The deadline for comments is 11-Aug-2026.
If your comments are site specific, please state very clearly which site they refer to.
